Ingredients:

• 2 cups long grain rice
• 100g butter
• 3/4 cup naked ginger, finely chopped
• 1 cup cashews, roughly chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• Zest from a lemon
• Handful mint leaves, finely chopped

Method:

1. Cook rice as per the packets instructions.
2. In a microwave safe bowl, add butter, ginger, cashews and cumin and microwave for 1 minute intervals until the butter is melted and has become bubbly.
3. Remove and add lemon zest.
4. Add this mixture to the cooked rice and stir until well combined. Allow to completely cool.
